(please note that I don't live in the uk and car prices here are silly compared to yours)
Is it just me or does it seem like rst's are doing that to allot of their owners now? I have always love my white s2, and have loads of good parts for it, but to chuck out 4k to restore it.. well. Can't really get any other performance car performance for that kinda money anyway, unless I want to go jap.
I'm not sure myself, I went for a walk tonight and stopped by the car and it was like the car was looking at me and I don't know why but I just like the car allot
It has failed me once in the 3 years I have had the car. one on hand if I restore it, it will live on for sure and maybe the odd 15+ years if I keep it or it gets a new owner that takes care of it. I just don't know because I honestly don't care about the money I have spent on the car, and tbh I haven't spent that much money on the car.. only oil every 3k, filters, clutch and the stuff it needed. But the time has come to make the choice if I want to restore it or not and I just don't know.

On one hand it will be nice to get a more roomy car (my fishing gear only just fits in the car) but I got seat covers and a 2 carpets in the boot, 1 to protect the original one that is in mint condition.. And my gf's think im crazy having such and old car when I could be driving something like a golf.. but I don't want a golf. This car have been there always and its my first performance car and my dad and I have worked on the car and moaned about it but it always kept me happy.. it even got stolen at some point and when I got it back I was all over the world that it wasn't hurt bad, and I don't know if I feel guilty.. but I feel like if I sell the car I will disappoint myself in the way that it gave me loads of good times and I never gave it something back, but hey we are talking about a car its only a material thing, but then again
And tbh I don't know of another S2 (here anyways) that have never been tuned for more power.
I Just like my car and will hate myself if I ever get rid

Maybe its those long nights sitting at the lake carp fishing thinking too much that inspired this post
